Delano Public Library

We had a BLAST at our first community mural painting session to celebrate Delano Sesquicentennial - 150th Celebrationn!

Members of the community were able to pick an image and replicate it with paint on a 3"x3" canvas. Once all 588 canvas tiles are painted, they will be assembled to create a larger mural that will be unveiled at our community art show in October and hung permanently in the Delano Public Library.

Make sure to mark your calendar to join our next paint session on Saturday April 11th from 10:00am-1:00pm-- drop in at any point to help us create a piece of Delano History!
